An Oasis or Just a Mirage?

According to what we learn from our Book, there will be very interesting scenes on the Day of Resurrection, when all people will be questioned. There we are no longer the actors of this world stage. It is the Day of Judgement. Whether we like it or not, on that day we will face all of our deeds. The deeds that were done having no belief in Allah will be like a mirage in the desert. Just like a mirage..."the thirsty one thinks it to be water". But alas! In vain!


wallazeena kafaruu a'maaluhum kasaraabin biqee'atin (24:39).
The unbelievers, their deeds are like a mirage in a desert

yahsabuhuz-zam-aanu maaan
The thirsty one thinks it to be water

hattaa izaa jaaahuu
until he comes up to it

lam yajidhu shay-an
he finds it to be nothing

wawajadallaaha 'indahuu fawaffaahu hisaabahuu
but he finds Allah with him, Who will pay him his account

wallaahu saree'ul-hisaab
And Allah is quick in taking account.
